In future years many will recall where they were on 25th August when Ben Stokes saved at the Headingly test match through sheer guts, skill and determination, with the capable help of the bespectacled Jack Leach, just as Botham did in 1981, with the help of Graham Dilley. We love a good swashbuckling hero who saves the day, but a year ago Ben Stokes was in trouble having been involved in a brawl outside a Bristol night club. Sport has many stories of people turning their lives around, and been able to put their aggression into the acceptable channels of the gladiatorial contest which is sport. Sport like art can hold up a mirror to human nature, reflecting our true character. The grace shown in defeat by defeated captains is a good example. We would be well advised not to put Ben Stokes on a pedestal, as that is the last place where he would want to be. The other aspect of this spectacular result was the quiet but vital role played by Jack Leach. Cricket is a game of partnerships as well as individual heroics and team spirit. No-one can truly claim credit alone for any achievement. Who we are and what we do is built upon vital human relationships which sustain us through the ups and downs of 2 life. The quiet, behind the scenes, humble people are just as heroic in their own way as their more charismatic counterparts. Whilst admiring moments of individual brilliance, let’s also celebrate the work of partners and teams which underpin any personal achievement. Rupert Images in the Bible A new series on Images in the Bible begins with the lowly feet which carry us about our business. They can be a symbol of many things, hospitality, serving, being disciples, worshipping, sharing good news. FEET Our feet are not the most prepossessing part of our anatomy. They can be misshapen like the feet of a rock climber or ballet dancer who have to squeeze their feet into tiny shoes to execute their skilful movement on point or on rock. They can also be beautiful like the feet of a new born baby with its tiny toes. Whatever they look like, feet are a vital part of who we are, and their loss can be hard to bear. Feet enable us to stand tall but they are also 3 an image of humility. They can bring harm or good. They can lead us astray or help us stick to the path. They can slip and stumble or they can keep us upright. They are symbols of worship, service and learning, where we find our proper place. In a land where sandalled feet became dusty and grimy very quickly, hospitality began with the washing of the guests feet.The angels who arrive at the oaks of Mamre are invited by Abraham: Let a little water be brought, and then you may all wash your feet and rest under this tree. Genesis 18:4 In Luke’s Gospel, there is a deep tenderness in Jesus receiving the ablutions of the woman in Luke’s Gospel: As she stood behind him at his feet weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears. Then she wiped them with her hair, kissed them and poured perfume on them. Luke 7:38 He is criticised by his host for allowing her even to touch him, and he rebukes Simon for his own rudeness:Then he turned towards the woman and said to Simon, ‘Do you see this woman? I came into your house. You did not give me any water for my feet, but she wet my feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair. You did not put oil on my head, but she has poured perfume on my feet. Luke 7:44-6. Her beautiful act of kindness is met with loving forgiveness and affirmation. Just as he was willing to receive the service of hospitality, Jesus showed the disciples how to serve, by doing the unthinkable, washing their dirty feet. Peter’s reaction shows what an astonishing action this was: ‘No,’ said Peter, ‘you shall never wash my feet.’ John 13:8. Jesus makes it clear that receiving his ministrations is a vital part of belonging to his servant way of life: Jesus answered, ‘Unless I wash you, you have no part with me.’ We then have a humorous interlude when Peter exaggerates his need to have his whole body washed, and Jesus says don’t be ridiculous, it’s only your feet that need washing. Jesus concludes by making clear the significance of what he has done: Now that I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also should wash one another’s feet. John 13:14 The disciples knew their place was to sit at Jesus’ feet, eager to learn from the Master. In allowing the healed man from Gerasa and Mary the sister of Martha to sit at his feet as disciples Jesus was inviting foreigners and women, who had previously been denied access to the teaching of Rabbis, to be included in his radical, subversive movement. 4 To have people at your feet was often a sign that you had power over them either to crush them or to lift them up and honour them. Jesus changed that mentality, and taught that anyone who wanted to lead or exercise any kind of power should first learn to be meek and humble. To fall at the feet of someone was an act of supplication. In one story in Luke two desperate people fall at Jesus’ feet one to request healing, the other who has already been healed; Then a man named Jairus, a synagogue leader, came and fell at Jesus’ feet, pleading with him to come to his house, because his only daughter, a girl of about twelve, was dying. Jesus goes with him but on the way notices that power had gone out of him. Then the woman, seeing that she could not go unnoticed, came trembling and fell at his feet. In the presence of all the people, she told why she had touched him and how she had been instantly healed. Luke 8:41-42, 47. To fall at the feet of someone was also an act of obedience and worship. After his resurrection Jesus meets his disciples: ‘Greetings,’ he said. They came to him, clasped his feet and worshipped him. Matthew 28:9 Jesus then commissions them to go and make disciples of all peoples. Feet are seen as vital to our capacity to bear witness to the good news. Having your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. Ephesians 6:15 In his book Wishful Thinking, Frederick Buechner comments on the fact that it is the feet that are beautiful in Isaiah’s words: How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good news, who proclaim peace, who bring good tidings. Isaiah 52:7 “Not how beautiful are the herald’s lips which proclaim the good tidings, or his eyes as he proclaims them, but how beautiful are the feet - the feet without which he could never have made it up into the mountains, without which the good tidings would never have been proclaimed at all. Generally speaking, if you want to know who you really are, as distinct from who you like to think you are, keep an eye on where your feet take you.” Rupert 5 Who am I, and where do I fit in? Angela Elphick When were you born and where? I was born in Bournemouth, back in the days of flower power. Do you have any interesting family memories? Too many. We had a bit of a crazy life, moving from one place or country to another because of my Dad’s work as a Pentecostal minister. Who influenced you most in your life? My parents have had a huge impact on my life. They are both Christians and have served God in amazing ways all their adult lives. They have shown me that living for Jesus is an incredible adventure. How did you come to faith? I was only 7 when I first gave my life to Jesus, a very simple “yes” to God.

  • Wakefield, West Riding: the Economy of a Yorkshire Manor
    WAKEFIELD, WEST RIDING: THE ECONOMY OF A YORKSHIRE MANOR By BRUCE A. PAVEY Bachelor of Arts Oklahoma State University Stillwater, Oklahoma 1991 Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS May, 1993 OKLAHOMA STATE UNIVERSITY WAKEFIELD, WEST RIDING: THE ECONOMY OF A YORKSHIRE MANOR Thesis Approved: ~ ThesiSAd er £~ A J?t~ -Dean of the Graduate College ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am deeply indebted to to the faculty and staff of the Department of History, and especially the members of my advisory committee for the generous sharing of their time and knowledge during my stay at O.S.U. I must thank Dr. Alain Saint-Saens for his generous encouragement and advice concerning not only graduate work but the historian's profession in general; also Dr. Joseph Byrnes for so kindly serving on my committee at such short notice. To Dr. Ron Petrin I extend my heartfelt appreciation for his unflagging concern for my academic progress; our relationship has been especially rewarding on both an academic and personal level. In particular I would like to thank my friend and mentor, Dr. Paul Bischoff who has guided my explorations of the medieval world and its denizens. His dogged--and occasionally successful--efforts to develop my skills are directly responsible for whatever small progress I may have made as an historian. To my friends and fellow teaching assistants I extend warmest thanks for making the past two years so enjoyable. For the many hours of comradeship and mutual sympathy over the trials and tribulations of life as a teaching assistant I thank Wendy Gunderson, Sandy Unruh, Deidre Myers, Russ Overton, Peter Kraemer, and Kelly McDaniels.

  • THE HISTORY of CLARENDON VILLAS FOREWORD Whilst Researching the Material for My First
    THE HISTORY OF CLARENDON VILLAS FOREWORD Whilst researching the material for my first ‘House History’ project, ‘Highfield House & Sowood House’, (2010), I collected a great deal of information concerning other neighbouring land and buildings. After a great deal of thought I decided it was a shame not to make use of this material. The result of this decision was the production of two more Local/House History publications. My second project ‘The History of the South Ossett Triangle’ is a potted history of the land shaped like a triangle, bordered by three roads, now called Horbury Road, Manor Road and Sowood Lane. On this land was built the Parish Church, the Vicarage and the two Schools. This third project I have called ‘The History of Clarendon Villas and Greystones House’. These two new books (along with the Highfield and Sowood House one) complete a Trilogy of publications covering all the large houses as well as the Ecclesiastical Buildings on this area of land, built in the 19th Century. Clarendon Villas, is situated on Horbury Road, up the next driveway to Highfield House & Cottage. (Access is now from Vicar Lane) The bottom of the garden of Greystones House backed onto the garden of Highfield Cottage. The daughter of the family who lived in part of Highfield House, Gwen Hopkins, married John Judge and they bought No 18b (which included the garden) of Greystones. My parents allowed Gwen to come into our garden and pass through our garage in order to visit her parents, thus saving about a half mile journey! I have tried my best to verify all the information used in this publication but mistakes do happen and I crave your indulgence for any that may have been made.

  • Baptism Information Letter Service
    Parish of Sandal Magna Vicar - Revd. Rupert Martin Baptism Thank you for calling to ask to have your child Baptised. We very much look forward to having you with us at St. Helen’s and trust that it will prove to be a happy and memorable occasion. Baptisms can be booked on a 1st or 3rd Sunday of the month. Baptism Preparation & Preparation Class Before your child are baptised, we warmly invite you to attend two of our services called ‘Families@4’ which are on the second Sunday of each month. This is a chance to join the worshipping life of the church and for us to get to know you. The service is very informal and includes a light tea with cake for the first 30mins. It is ideally suited to young families and the worship lasts no longer than 40mins. Additionally, It is important that both parents attend (where possible) our ‘Baptism Preparation Class’, because we will be learning about the meaning of baptism, thinking about our Christian faith and preparing for the service. It is also an opportunity for us to help you complete the enclosed application form and book a date (if one has not already been booked). Please make sure you have completed and returned it to The Parish Office, with a voluntary donation of £28 payable to “Sandal Magna PCC Fee’s Account”, (costs towards expenses such as heat and light, a certificate and cards for Godparents). Baptism Visitors Each family is assigned a ‘Baptism Visitor’. They are ordinary members of the church who volunteer to support families who are having children baptised.

In territorial terms it was a time of loss. The diocese of Ripon was founded in 1836 taking with it some of the most heavily populated new industrial regions of West Yorkshire, Bradford, Halifax and Leeds. By 1836 the archbishop had also lost his peculiar jurisdiction over Hexhamshire and in 1837 the archdeaconry of Nottingham was transferred to the diocese of Lincoln. Even though a time of territorial loss for the diocese, it was a period of increased church building. When changing expectations of the parochial role of the clergy, the demand for clerical residence and the provision of a living wage for stipendary curates and increased parochial demands for preaching and the sacraments within a broadening definition of parochial work are added to this the period is seen to be one of repeated adaptation and change. ORDINATION- THE SOURCES From the middle of the eighteenth century onwards the information recorded in the York Institution Act Books can be validated and expanded by reference to the bundles of papers submitted by the candidates themselves prior to their taking orders.

  • And 14Th-Century West Yorkshire Wenyeva Atte Grene
    Locative and toponymic bynames in 13th- and 14th-century West Yorkshire Wenyeva atte grene Wendi Dunlap [email protected] Introduction The Wakeeld Court Rolls are records of manorial court proceedings from the Wakeeld Manor in the West Riding of Yorkshire. The earliest Roll extant is from 1274, and the records continue, with some breaks, until the 1920s. As records of the activity on the Manor, the Rolls contain many names of Wakeeld-area residents. The most common names in thirteenth century records are locative and toponymic, and though relationship names become more common in fourteenth century Rolls, locative and toponymic names continue to be seen in high numbers during this period. These names provide us with many period place name spellings, some of which are not found in other references commonly used in SCA onomastic research. The following names have been drawn from my unpublished research into the Rolls in 127475 and 135052. This content is much abbreviated for the purpose of this article; for reasons of space, I am only occasionally including etymologies of the place names included in these bynames. I am working from 20th century reprints of the Rolls. The Rolls of 1274 75 were published in both English and Latin in 1901, and I double-checked the Latin record as needed. Given names here were generally normalized from the Latin forms by the modern translator, with some exceptions, so most of these entries are not useful for determining period given name spellings. The surnames are not normalized unless noted, and are given in Latin if that was the form used.
